Illusion Quicksilver rolls my thoughts in leach. Like waves that wash an Island beach. Swirling the granules fine. Pearls dissolved in heady wine. I cannot find a steady pool. To nullify the acid fool And build a base within my space. To make a thesis of my case Stop the tarnish of illusion. Turn the objects wrong conclusion. Set a seal on reasons goal. And let her sleep within my soul. At least to hold the door ajar This maiden and my guiding star To reach and touch those lips my own. Before they place a final stone. My hand grows weary on this page. I have no answer for old age. |

Morning greetings to our beloved Mr. T.! Well, an aging body is an unfortunate--and inevitable, outcome of our growth and time here on earth; HOWEVER, on the positive side of the ledger--and especially in your case--the mind can become stronger, wiser, and more creative with the passing of the years! Peace & Love, EA |

Quicksilver rolls my thoughts in leach. Like waves that wash an Island beach. Swirling the granules fine. Pearls dissolved in heady wine. ========================== At least to hold the door ajar This maiden and my guiding star To reach and touch those lips my own. Before they place a final stone. My hand grows weary on this page. I have no answer for old age. ==================================== this whole poem is worth is weight in poetic gold and the imagery in that first verse alone is cooler than a mere moth has wrods for... As for your closing couplet.... I KEEP telling ya... youre not OLD!!! you are like fine wine... ya just get sweeter and finer with time... do ya doubt the moth????  *L**ww*   |

Seymour, your youth and your mind are ageless, I do think. Besides, you have wisdom that has grown over the years, dear Poet Sir.  Heart Hugs from me to you, Ethel |
